Project Pinterest: Rocks as Angry Birds

We were a little late jumping on the Angry Birds bandwagon, but now we can't get enough of it! I saw this post, went to Brassy Apple and got inspired to help the boys create a set of Angry Birds of their own.

The boys collected rocks to match the sizes and shapes of birds and pigs.

We have so much acrylic paint that we didn't even need to head to the store for any specific colors! We all painted the rocks and let them dry. The hard part was waiting for the paint to dry! After the paint dried I sent the boys out to play and used a Sharpie to draw the features then used a toothpick to paint on the details. The Angry Birds' home is a lovely egg carton.



Do you notice the pollen? We can't escape from it! 




After a few days of waiting patiently, the boys set up some old building blocks in the garage and put the pigs in their places. 


After the knockdown with the slingshot, Ryan sets it up again. They boys had such a fun time with this one! 



Can't wait to see what you've done this week for Project Pinterest!

Project Pinterest: Frozen Yogurt Drops


I was so happy to see this blog post from One Good Thing about these tasty little treats so I pinned it right away! They are easy to make and that's enough reason for me to try them out!

I first lined a plate with wax paper and put a sandwich baggie in a glass. I spooned a small container of Activia blueberry yogurt into the baggie and cut off the tip. Then I squeezed little dots of yogurt on the wax paper. Watch out for those little blueberries though! They get stuck and then will basically explode out when they're ready to pop through. That's the reason why they're not all the same size. Then I put them in the freezer for a few hours while I was at the boys' football practice. When we got home I popped them right off the wax paper and into a little ramekin and enjoyed my little 70 calorie snack. These will definitely be in my usual repertoire of snacks!
